This book describes intelligent control and its use in power electronic systems, specifically AC motor drives and uninterruptable power supply (UPS) systems. The book covers both the fundamentals of the subject and its practical applications. From the Foreword by Lotfi A. Zadeh, Director of Berkeley Soft Computing Center, California: 'What is unusual about [this book] is that it starts with a description of more or less classical control techniques; moves on to modern control and state space techniques; addresses in detail the complex issues arising in the analysis and design of robust control; takes up digital signal processing controllers; and finally, presents a very insightful exposition of soft computing techniques and their application to advanced control of AC drives and UPS systems.'

Semiconductors have been used widely in signal-level or "brain" applications. Since their invention in 1948, transistors have revolutionized the electronics industry in computers, information processing, and communications. Now, however, semiconductors are being used more and more where consid erable "brawn" is required. Devices such as high-power bipolar junction tran sistors and power field-effect transistors, as well as SCRs, TRlACs, GTOs, and other semiconductor switching devices that use a p-n-p-n regenerative effect to achieve bistable action, are expanding the power-handling horizons of semicon ductors and finding increasing application in a wide range of products including regulated power supplies, lamp dimmers, motor drives, pulse modulators, and heat controls. HVDC and electric-vehicle propulsion are two additional areas of application which may have a very significant long range impact on the tech nology. The impact of solid-state devices capable of handling appreciable power levels has yet to be fully realized. Since it first became available in late 1957, the SCR or silicon-controlled rec tifier (also called the reverse blocking triode thyristor) has become the most popular member of the thyristor family. At present, SCRs are available from a large number of manufacturers in this country and abroad. SCR ratings range from less than one ampere to over three thousand amperes with voltage ratings in excess of three thousand volts.
